Topics management
- [Instructor] The kafka-topics.sh Shell script can also be used to modify and delete topics. Running just the kafka-topics.sh Shell script shows all the parameters that are available to be modified. Things like partition count can only be increased, and that needs to be planned ahead. To demonstrate, we will use this Shell script to delete the kafka.learnings.alert topic. We again need to provide the bootstrap server parameter and the topic name. The delete command takes care of deletion. Let's run the command now. The command returned successfully without errors. Running the list command after this command will show that this topic has been deleted. In the next video, we will explore some internals of Kafka.
